83 The orders of the ancestor of the Jiang family
In the bright room, the whole wall of candles is lit, the candle flame is a little dazzling, the white-bearded old man sitting on the futon, looks kind, but because of the back light, so he can't see his face clearly, plus the dead atmosphere, but gives people a sense of pressure, Ruyue knelt in front of the old man, the atmosphere did not dare to come out. But the old man called her, but he didn't say a word.
"Ancestor, is there something you called me for?" Ruyue, who finally couldn't stand this atmosphere, asked weakly.
The old man finally raised his eyelids and looked at her.
"I heard that my Jiang family's business with the emperor of the Northern Yan Kingdom is yellow. There was no joy or anger in the plain old voice.
Ruyue buried her head very low: "Yes." She replied tremblingly, don't look at this old man's kind eyebrows, but the means are good, otherwise the Jiang family would not have existed for so long.
"Then Qin Mu once had something to do with you, and it was because of him that our business was gone, is it true?"
The point is, at this time, how could Ruyue admit that she just said that Qin Mu and her knew each other when they were children, and the relationship was average, and the two had not seen each other for thousands of years. But when he thought of Qin Mu now, his heart couldn't help but feel sour. But at this time, the ancestor of the Jiang family stood up from the futon, walked in front of her, and helped her up with his own hands.
"Don't be afraid of the child, I didn't mean to blame you, that Qin Mu is now an elder of the Haoyang Sect, and his status is precious, it stands to reason that I should come to apologize in person, but you see that my body is not as good as day by day. Since you and he have known each other since childhood, I have to ask you to move around a little more. As he spoke, he patted Ruyue's hand.
"But..."Ruyue showed a confused expression.
"Alas, the Jiang family will not forget your credit. As he spoke, he took out a secret book: "I see that your cultivation has encountered a bottleneck, you can take this secret book, cultivate hard, you must know that you and the Jiang family are both prosperous and lossy." ”
Ruyue held this cheatbook, as if it weighed a thousand pounds, but she nodded: "Granddaughter-in-law understands." "After living in a family of intrigue, no matter how pure the white rabbit is, she will learn to eat bones, the meaning of the ancestor of the Jiang family, she naturally understands.
In front of the dresser, dressed in red, snail Dai painted eyebrows, cinnabar lightly, lip grease dyed lips, golden hairpin into the hair, under the careful dressing, the original was a colorless woman, transformed into a woman, although not as beautiful as a girl, but also quite charming. She pulled out a smile in front of the mirror, but that smile looked okay from a distance, but it was full of bitterness when she looked closely, yes, no matter how she dressed, she was no longer the girl she was at the beginning.
And now, she has to dress up to meet someone, a person who is very important to her and to the Jiang family, she retired the servant and went alone, she remembered that the other party liked the taste of Chunfangzhai powder on her body, but after all, thousands of years have passed, Chunfangzhai is long gone, but she picked a one with a similar taste based on her memory.
It is obviously a memory of a thousand years ago, and she can't remember many things clearly, but the preferences of the other party are emerging one by one, although she is a little embarrassed at this time, but her heart still rises a secret joy, she seems to have returned to a thousand years ago, the moment when she made a choice of fate again.
When she came to the toon building, she gave a few low-grade spirit stones to the shopkeeper and inquired about his room.
Facing the shopkeeper's enthusiastic and sticky gaze, Ruyue's confidence in herself was a little higher.
However, she got the news that the people had gone shopping at the night market.
Wow shopping!
The chance encounter under the lights crashed into Jun's arms, took off Jun's mask, recalled the past, poured into his heart, and remembered unforgettable. She lifted the green silk hanging from her ear, the corners of her mouth rose, and according to the shopkeeper's instructions, along the way, she was thinking, what should her first look be when she met him?
In the crowd, she looked around, and sure enough, people like Qin Mu could be remembered by passers-by as long as they glanced at it casually. She followed the guidance of passers-by all the way, and finally met the person she wanted to see in front of the jewelry stall. She grabbed the hem of her skirt like a girl and ran towards the person in her heart.
That excited mood made her seem to return to her youth, and the young man was waiting for her with a worthless hairpin, but before she took a step, she stopped.
The person in his heart picked up the novelty gadgets on the stall and handed them to the girl beside him. It was a real young girl, with skin like condensation, green silk like ink, no powder, and a smile touched people's hearts. She saw that Qin Mu took good care of her, just like she used to be, but she looked at her hands that were no longer soft, and no matter how much rouge was applied to her face, it also covered up the fact that she was old.
And in the dim light, the truly beautiful and moving girl is being cared for by two men. And she's just a daughter-in-law who is old and unfavored. What does she fight with others?
Lin Xi was holding a bracelet with exquisite workmanship, it was just an ordinary bracelet, not a magic weapon, but Lin Xi liked it, and the two men rushed to help her buy it. Of course, this is not that Qin Mu fell in love with her, although she is now higher than Qin Mu in seniority, but after all, she is more than a thousand years younger than Qin Mu, Qin Mu is not only a respect for the elders, but also a care for the young.
So someone should regret dying now.
It's not that she didn't see Ruyue, she believed that Qin Mu had also seen it. It's just a matter of what choice a person makes, and he is responsible for his choice. Why should she meddle with things, she might as well visit the night market more and sell more.
This kind of grilled skewer is very fragrant, that baked cake is very crispy, this box of rouge is very good-looking, and that hairpin is well done. She hadn't been to such a lively street for a long time, and she finally had a chance to buy and buy, how could she let it go. Anyway, she has money now, and she buys it willfully. Just as she was eating the sugar gourd, she heard it in her ears...
"Meow~"
She glanced away.
Wow~ little kitten!
I saw a stall selling demon beasts, dozens of large and small cages were locked up in all kinds of demon beasts, one of the small broken cages, there was a thin kitten, the hair was gray and knotted, and she knew that she was malnourished at a glance, although Lin Xi liked small animals, but she also knew that there were such abused demon beasts everywhere in the continent, and she couldn't control it at all.
However, she rolled her eyes at this time, smiled slightly, and changed to a distressed expression, walked to the kitten, squatted in front of its cage, and teased the kitten with her fingertips.
"This cat is too weak, if you like cats, next time I will catch a seven-star flame cat for you. Canglan glanced at this dirty kitten, this kind of wild cat of unknown origin, with impure blood, is not suitable to keep around at all.
But with Lin Xi's begging eyes, no matter how much opposition was swallowed.
Lin Xi was satisfied and replaced the kitten with a low-grade spirit stone, and the weak kitten trembled in her arms, making a "Mimi" sound from time to time. When Lin Xi stroked its forehead, it obediently rubbed Lin Xi's palm. Lin Xi's smile deepened, who could have known that this kitten exchanged for a piece of low-grade spirit stone would be a divine beast white tiger?
